On-Campus Housing
The Scioto-Morgens graduate apartment complex, located on the northwest corner of West Campus,
offers on-campus living and a unique learning environment composed of students
from over forty different countries. Two 12-story apartment buildings (Scioto
Hall and Morgens Hall) offer four apartment styles: efficiencies without
balconies, efficiencies with balconies, one-bedroom apartments, and two bedroom
apartments. All apartments have fully-equipped kitchens and basic furnishings. Morgens
Hall also contains two apartments of each style that have been adapted to
comply with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). A game room, student
lounge, children’s playground, basic cable, local phone service, and high-speed
Internet access are offered.
Convenient parking is located behind these facilities. Parking decals must be purchased at
Parking Services.
To obtain more information or apply for an apartment, students should refer to the Graduate and Family Housing website
or contact their Office at ucgradfa@uc.edu
or 2920 Scioto Street, Cincinnati,
OH, 45219-0682 (556-0682). Students wishing to
live in graduate housing should apply as early as possible to have the greatest
chance at obtaining a vacancy and their desired apartment style.
Affiliated Housing
Located on the perimeter of campus, affiliated housing puts
the student just a short walk away from all campus facilities and events.
Students are welcome to investigate the housing available at:
University Park Apartments
(located on Calhoun Street, just south of campus)
Stratford Heights
Apartments (located on Clifton Avenue, just west of campus)
Bellevue Gardens
(located on Martin Luther King, just south of the medical campus)
Off-Campus Housing
Many graduate students choose to live in the "Gaslight District" near Ludlow Avenue on
the northwest side of campus. This quaint area, about 15 walking minutes from
campus, offers coffee shops, great ethnic restaurants, the Esquire movie theater
and two Cincinnati
favorites, Graeter's Ice Cream and Skyline Chili. If you decide to live in the
Gaslight District, expect to pay more than if you live on the other sides of
campus. And don't forget, you will have to walk up a fairly challenging hill to
get to your classes.
If you are looking to spend less, try the west side of campus behind
"frat-row." You will find several nice, old houses that have been
converted into affordable living spaces. If the noise during fall and spring
rush weeks would not bother you, odds are you will find a great place there to
call home.
Off-Campus housing listings, including rentals and roommates wanted, are available for the
UC area from Apartment Frog, City Beat
and Cincinnati.com (linked to local newspapers – The
Cincinnati Enquirer and The Cincinnati Post).
